Metro Man had told him to stay put and out of trouble but it didn’t mean he couldn’t go out still. The police didn’t know his civilian form and he still was curious over what was going on in this city. He couldn’t just sit around and do nothing in his apartment, waiting for his house arrest to be over.He needed the space.“Stupid villains in this city,” he cursed, jumping about with the storm that kept brewing over his head which was slightly out of season for winter. Which only meant one thing.Lady Doppler was pissed about something.He looked up as a bit of lightning streaked across the sky, trying not to wince as he stood on the sidewalk, people walking by around him.
“Oh wow,” he heard a voice exclaim behind him. “That was a big one!” when Steve turned around he saw a skinny, blue skinned man standing not a few feet from him. Jack, needing to go out to do some quick shopping for the apartment, held a hand above his face as he watched as the sky rumbled and growled as if a beast possessed.
Feeling he was being watched he turned his head a little, and smiled brightly when he saw who it was. “Steve?” he asked, “Oh, wow. Steve, it’s been ages!” he said brightly, approaching the man. “Jack, remember? I know, look,” he pointed to his pencil thin Vincent Price mustache on his upper lip. “This is new but it’s me.”
